About Rudra
The line above is a direct translation of what Chiaki says in the Japanese version.

This line was very fascinating to me, because it explains what Rudra actually is, which we never properly get to know in the other media. (or at least not from what I have read or seen so far)

If Rudra is Zenki's life force, then using up this life force to attack is foes is obviously also harmful to Zenki, because having no life force means, that Zenki would die from Rudra.

Now Ozunu's line from the anime, where he states, that Rudra will destroy Zenki if he uses it too often and Zenki almost dying whenever he uses this attack against his foes makes way more sense.

In the manga, Zenki got gravely injured from his own Rudra attack when he used it against Anjura and died from it when fighting Hiki. In the anime, he gets very ill after using Rudra against Anju's Hyouijuu form and in KDZGG, he dies from it when he uses it against Kimon.

As the life force is the very base of the transformed energies, that make up the elements, which in turn make up your body, it only makes sense, that Zenki's body would be shredded if he uses up this very life force.

'''Wow! That's amazing and sad at the same time!'''
